Listening to the news..."the unemployment rate has fallen".

Ponderable: Where do they count all those people whose unemployment benefits have run out and are still unemployed?

........................................................................

Listening to the news..." I don't want the government telling me I have to BUY health insurance".

Ponderable: What is the difference in "having to buy" and "having to pay"?

Comment:
I HAVE to pay taxes NOW which buys health insurance for those who do not have it. It appears many in government are trying to do two things... get everyone to pay for their OWN health insurance and ensure they have someone to buy it it from , who isn't going to drive them into debt OR death.

Who Doesn't Have Snow...

Or a shovel...


The Farmer's Almanac got this one right. I am, thankfully, off today and can watch it fall...and fall...and fall. The awe this inspires of the elements in the world around me has me enthralled.


It is in these moments when we truly know our real worth to ourself and to others.
